Protecting & Serving
Various services and programs have been put into effect to protect and aide the citizens of Hemet. Citizens may report suspicious activity, review current police news and changes, and even get their fingerprints taken for various reasons.

The Community Services bureau consists of School Resource Officers, Hemet PD Explorers, Neighborhood Watch, Crime-Free Multi-Housing, and Hemet PD Volunteers.  It is supervised by Sergeant Nate Miller.

School Resource Officers

The Hemet Police Department, through a partnership with the Hemet Unified School District, staffs each middle and high school within the city limits with a full-time School Resource Officer.  These full time Hemet Police Officers maintain an office at each school and interact daily with students and staff on campus.  They are responsible for the protection of students & staff and investigate crimes that occur on campus.
